Here I am using the new digital camera, trying to get it dialed in for some action shots while driving. There are a myriad of shutter speeds and light settings. Probably not the best time to be learning how to use the camera, while I'm driving. But I've handled harder tasks while driving, like shaving and eating at the same time. That's when your knees come in handy for steering. I can even steer around shallow curves in the road with my knees in a pinch.

It's pretty much interstate driving but there is a bit of greenery as I passed through.

The daylight finally surrenders, providing some really nice colors.

I drive as far as Mauston, WI and settle in for the night. Tomorrow will take me to the dairy heartland of Wisconsin, Carr Valley, for a tour of Carr Valley Cheese. Greg told me about the cheese curds they have there, the best anywhere according to him. After the cheese factory I plan on visiting the House on the Rock, a very odd place that has a huge collection of oddities and other interesting things.
